The reduction of alkyl chlorides using triethylsilane is investigated. Primary, secondary, tertiary, and benzylic C–Cl bonds are effectively converted into C–H bonds using an [IrCl(cod)]2/2,6-bis(benzimidazol-2′-yl)pyridine catalyst system. This catalyst system… Click to show full abstract

The reduction of alkyl chlorides using triethylsilane is investigated. Primary, secondary, tertiary, and benzylic C–Cl bonds are effectively converted into C–H bonds using an [IrCl(cod)]2/2,6-bis(benzimidazol-2′-yl)pyridine catalyst system. This catalyst system is quite simple since the tridentate N-ligand can be easily prepared in one step from commercially available reagents.
